How to enable Microsoft Edge Windows 11 visual updates

To test out the new visual enhancements that Microsoft intends to implement to bring the browser’s design experience into line with Windows 11, you can enable the Windows 11 Visual Updates flag on Microsoft Edge 93. New transparency for context, all other menus, and the space surrounding the browser frame—more especially, the tab area—are among the cosmetic enhancements.

The user’s desktop backdrop color is slightly tinted on the surfaces of Mica, a new opaque substance used in the new visuals. Additionally, the element shows the active and inactive phases of window focus.

Only Microsoft Edge versions 93 and up for Windows 11 support the new visual modifications, which are compatible with both light and dark modes.
